Teams users can now access work, education, and personal accounts in the same app, Microsoft announced on Tuesday.
Microsoft introduced the original Teams app for workplace collaboration in 2017, with a separate app for conversations with friends and family appearing in 2020. Users had to install two different Teams apps on their PCs if they wanted to use the platform for both work and personal text chats and video calls.
Now users can access both their personal and work accounts from a single Teams app for Windows 11, Windows 10, and macOS, Microsoft said in a blog post. The unified app feature has been in development for several months in response to feedback that users want an easier way to switch between their accounts.
